A couple more concepts for #20.

|
Here is a good exercise for our community. What are the different industry problems DNotes has identified and the solutions it has introduced? You can name one or all. As a group I am certain that we can complete the exercise.
Just to name a few: -Volatility -Long term saving incentive -Negative forum behavior -Gender gap -Ease of use -Too many conflicting interests -Attempting to reach out to everyday people Excellent first pass. Keep adding and refining the list with DNotes solutions. May be Wiser can write up the final version to be a DCEBrief. A few industry problems that DNotes has addressed (whether intentionally or unintentionally): - Lack of trust and integrity - Lack of leadership both within the industry and at the currency level - Lack of real world experience - I think this has been the downfall of many currencies These are the most important ones to me, in order of importance. Some of these are similar to the ones already mentioned. Problem - CryptoCurrency investors and newcomers have been getting 'taken to the cleaners' over and over again, creating a negative experience for users, due to rampant greed Solution - By protecting the price, DNotes has created a positive investing environment and positive first experience for many I'm sure Problem - The learning curve for safe entry into cryptocurrency is very steep, and a deterrent for most people. Solution - DNotesVault Problem - Fear of losing your coins using an online storage services. Solution - DNotesVault by design and backup guarantee fund. 100% offline storage, rather than using a hot wallet, accessible online, is one of those stupid simple yet brilliant ideas. Problem - Rampant industry communities full of boys behaving badly. Solution - Professional community management and issue mitigation. Problem - The vast majority of people have underfunded or no retirement account at all Solution - CRISP for Retirement program, with bonus interest on top of DNotes appreciation. My first funded retirement account! Great list guys, keep them coming. Started a new thread for this on CryptoMoms as well. http://cryptomoms.com/forum/dnotes/28/what-are-the-different-industry-problems-dnotes-has-identified-and-the-solution/1044/

I was reading the economic section of this forum on how one gentleman got a hair cut in Cyprus and was thinking of turning to bitcoin to pay his employees so i directed him to this thread so I hope that he might join the CRISP FOR EMPLOYER'S program.. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Excellent! We will do whatever we can help them get started.

wooot ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) im interested ! .. just come back from 2 sweet weeks holidays in mediterranean beach !! , anyone can tell me about this new asset for DNotes? Happy independence day ... looking for independence 2.0 i hope. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Welcome back infovortice, hope you had a great vaca! Digital Currency Executive Brief, starts here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=470155.msg11736706#msg11736706The idea started as a need for a way to educate people about DNotes without asking them to read 300 pages of our forum, like an executive summary. As more information became available about New York bitlicense, we felt the need to publicly state our views on what the regulations should look like. As of now, if all 50 states followed suit it would cost millions yearly to run any kind of exchange services. From there, the idea evolved into a site designed to provide brief executive summaries on important topics in our industry. It will be a DNotes asset, with the potential of being a profit bearing site in the future. Which will eventually be tied into the company that DNotes as whole owns 25% as we mentioned earlier. That is the short story. aaah ok thanks bro, this is good idea for confused new users/investors/traders and if some videos are added will be great too. its much easier see the instalation of wallet and use of vault than read it. i just see this new pool saying pay 102% per block of dnotes, you hear something about? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1082773.0Haven't seen that one yet. That is a unique promotion. Thanks!

Welcome to the DNotes forum oniromancia and Bergman!
Thanks. I've been browsing through your forum as I have time. Great! If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

That's a great find, in total agreement as well.

Me too! It's similar to the others I liked but has a more feminine feel LOL Happy 4th of July to everyone in the U.S. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I know this isn't helping narrow things down in choosing the new site logo, but #18 is growing on me. And I realize I'm now WAY behind. I glanced over the different designs with number 20, and I like the ones which have the first three letters in squares shaded in different colors. Those jump out at me. The options with lines over and under (including the one where the lines come off the letters) look pretty sharp too. I should probably number these as well, to help identify them. Thanks Wiser.

Welcome to the DNotes forum oniromancia and Bergman!

Here are some ideas I have been working on. I chose #20 for this round as it was popular, but it is by no means the finalized font. Some aren't good, but just trying to get everyone involved in the creative process. Please feel free to comment, suggest, or build on these for your own submissions. P.S. Source files available if anyone wants. I will be away for most of the rest of the night.

Happy 4th of July all! Enjoy your fireworks, cook outs, and time with the family.

Thanks for the replies all, that will help narrow the list.

I like 3, 20, 23. Wondering if tag line needs to be in italics? Maybe it does, but might be worth experimenting.
Thanks wiser, not at all. We will play around with it a bit.

Starting on the new site logo. This is the first step in my process, narrowing down a font, and I would like everyone's opinion on which ones you feel are best suited for the site.
The logo for the new site should be simple, professional, with finance and/or technology elements.
By the way, if anyone is interested in creating a logo for DCEBrief, we are willing to provide a bounty. Yes, I would like to submit a few logos. When do you need all submission by? Thanks. As of right now, it is very early in the development process, so we have time. I would say a week would be fine.

Quote from CryptoMoms HI everyone, We are in the process of developing new features and content for DNotes Educational Guide, to ensure we provide the best app for learning digital currency. Please download the app and leave an appropriate review, include your DNotes address in the review and we'll send 50 DNotes to the first 20 reviewers. If you don't make the top 20, please include your address anyways, we'll occasionally reward people who enjoyed the app (at random). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cojack.dnedu*Please note, if you are using the old version of DNotes Educational Guide, you will need to uninstall the app and download the new version from the link above. Thanks CryptoBroker79, would you like us to post this on Social media as well?

Alright, so I'm planning on doing a few videos, I have planned to do several of them that are ~3 minutes in length. I've finally found somebody who has the appropriate equipment (a student at my university that I haven't met yet). Suffice to say, I'm looking for community involvement in the best DNotes topics to cover, comments on style of video (interview + randomly inserted shots of activities, people buying things with credit cards, shots of night markets / my city / my uni or what not to add interest), and the main points raised in each video for each topic.
Currently my preference is to film 3-4 interviews in the one day with more to come at a later date after reviews from the community on the first batch. The videos will be made with a focus for a US audience, and thankfully, I'm told my accent is not a identifiably kiwi one, I'm sometimes asked if I'm foreign, despite... only spending 1 week outside of New Zealand my whole life!!! That said, I won't try to emulate a US one.
To be the most help, people here could please add both questions that should be answered, but ALSO the topics that should be mentioned briefly in the answer.
What is Digital Currency, and what is DNotes? (can combine topics, or do separate videos) What is Digital Currency? (describe Bitcoins rise etc) What opportunities does Digital Currency provide? - Technology, instant payments at near no cost, be your own bank etc.. (makes a case to include DNotes in the same video) Nobody controls the money supply - No political constraint on currency's success - not subject to regional economic turmoil - ie. Greece. Privacy? - Mention? Touchy subject to some?
How is DNotes different? Focus on reliable appreciation, stable long-term appreciation Aims to simplify the current technical nature of Digital Currency Cryptomoms.com - Female participation (under-represented), first of its kind... DNotesVault - Guaranteed vault deposits, first of its kind, send crypto to e-mails... CRISP programs - Employees, Retirement, Students... Who founded DNotes - Business experience, Alan Yong (tech pioneer, Dauphin?, Smokey's Gardens)...
CRISP for Students What is it and what is a CRISP? Why is it needed and how does it plan to enrich student lives? - Capital appreciation How does the plan work? How do I get my university to participate? (that reminds me, still have to get in touch with my university to pilot!!!)
CRISP for Retirement What is it and what is a CRISP? Why is it needed? (insert simple, factually correct and pertinent statistics about US saving rates?) How does the plan work?
Other topics that could be covered in this round are: DNotesVault - how to use it etc, Cryptomoms - what is it etc? CRISP overview - etc. Any more?
Let me know what you all think should be prioritised / included together. I do think that because I'm CRISP director for students, and I was initially going to do this specifically for CRISP for Students, that I should continue to include that as one of the topics covered in the first batch. Wanted to post some rough draft ideas before all the US / Canadian citizens here go to bed.
Thank you TeeGee, these videos will become an invaluable tool for DNotes. A note for the "What is Digital Currency, and what is DNotes?" section. Digital Currency is currently in it's infancy, but has the potential to become a globally accepted payment solution, and everyone has the opportunity to get involved early quite easily. Privacy is an important issue and worth a mention in a factual way, it is important for people to know and understand. Jon Matonis said it quite eloquently “Accounts at a money service business or financial institution can certainly be linked to identity, but the individual coins (or coin subunits) themselves cannot be.” http://cointelegraph.com/news/114648/jon-matonis-the-bitcoin-ecosystem-will-soon-need-a-reference-interest-rate-similar-to-liborMelanie Shapiro "There's a lot of misconception about what bitcoin actually is due to media narratives. The most popular reference I hear mentioned is Silk Road, but Silk Road wasn't enabled by bitcoin. People forget or don't realize that Silk Road was enabled by Tor, an 'anonymizing' proxy network. Bitcoin isn't actually an anonymous currency it's pseudo-anonymous. Want to know what's anonymous? Cash." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/billrobinson/having-my-mind-changed-on_b_7613676.htmlEverything is private, to the public, but everything leaves a trail. Not suitable for money laundering and criminal activity, although there is a misconception that it is. I will post if I have more.
